Summary
"We get a higher show of force, especially from men."
Lucy's fingers wrap around the chilled metal of the doorknob.
"So guess what, sweetheart, you are always going to be tested."
She applies just enough of her waning energy to twist it— and the door opens.
Stay down, and get used to that position.
Lucy crosses the threshold and lets her head fall back as she breathes in the late-night air.
Get used to that position.

Summary
She tries denying it when the coast creeps inward.
She covers her eyes so she can pretend she doesn't see the water swirling around her feet.It is only when the waves come crashing over her head that she finally, albeit belatedly, admits it to herself.
This is all so strange to him. He remembers musing about nursery decor with Isabel and discussing baby names with Lucy, for God's sake.
He can't, for the life of him, determine when he came to this conclusion, can't possibly recall when he became so staunchly resolute in his resolution to remain childfree forever.

Summary
So vivid is this memory in Lucy's mind that when she feels the hands on her shoulders, hoisting her from where she is lain in his trunk, she is almost able to convince herself that the hands belong to her father, and he is carrying her into the house from the car.
She is being carried into a house from a car, but it is all happening the wrong way. This man is not her father, and she is not being carried against her father's chest. She is draped across this man's right shoulder, held there by his right arm as it pins her thighs to his upper abdomen. She is milliseconds away from falling, though Lucy knows that he will not let her fall. It is so violating, yet simultaneously so intimate that she almost forgets to feel fear.

My rewrite of 2x11 (Day of Death) because The Rookie writers are too afraid to include sexual assault in any context that can't be ignored or minimized.

Rewriting certain scenes from The Rookie because the writers are cowards (love them tho)… and inserting some canon-divergent moments as a means of catharsis for my own personal trauma.

Summary
Maybe it’ll fix itself tomorrow.
Maybe she’d wake up the next day and she’d finally find it in her to forgive him, to tell him everything she’d been too scared to, and to finally have him back.
But she’s been saying that every night for the past few months now.

Summary
Something happened to Lucy on her most recent long term undercover mission. That isn’t a question. What bothers Tim is that she hasn't talked to him about it—
The girl who processes her emotions by talking to other people hasn’t said a word and he’s at a bit of a loss on how to deal with that.
